They are truly a paradise for food lovers. 1️⃣ Lilith Restaurant: This restaurant is known for its exquisite Turkish cuisine and romantic atmosphere. It is located on the hotel's rooftop terrace, overlooking the beautiful scenery of Goreme. I recommend trying their pottery-roasted meat and Turkish pizza, which are delicious and unforgettable. 2️⃣ Virtus Restaurant: This restaurant offers international cuisine with fresh ingredients and exquisite presentation. The restaurant's elegant and comfortable environment makes it an ideal place for a romantic dinner. I recommend trying their steak and seafood platter, which are rich in flavor and impressive.

📅 Travel Itinerary Day 1: Arrive at Kayseri by flight from Antalya Day 2: Ride hot air balloon, green tour Day 3: Staycation at the hotel because it rained. Afternoon sunset ATV Day 4: View hot air balloon at dawn, move to Istanbul in the afternoon 🏨 Accommodation recommendation Kaya Hotel (Sacred Mansion) is the best hotel However, if you take a dolmushi from Kayseri Airport and say Kaya Hotel, they will drop you off at a different place You must say Sacred Mansion as written on the English voucher. There is no name Kaya Hotel anywhere at the hotel entrance. I think it needs to be corrected on Trip.com 🍴 Restaurant recommendation 1. Wood Fire Barbeque It was easy to find and the taste was great I had a jar kebab and was very satisfied The prices in Turkey have gone up so much, so the price range is a bit high. But it was friendly and the interior atmosphere was good 2. The Parmesan They sell cheese pasta and hamburgers The thick pasta was delicious However, they serve it in a paper bowl ^^ The price is cheap and they also do takeout 📌 Useful tips The prices in Turkey have gone up so much that my budget plan has been ruined. Still, Goreme is a little better than Istanbul. You should stay in Goreme for at least 3 days You should be able to experience tours or activities. Please refer to this when planning your trip.

As the best place in the world for hot air balloon flights, the romance of Cappadocia is obvious to all. As the hot air balloon took off, the unique lunar-like landforms on Earth took shape at this moment. Especially at dusk, when the lights come on, Cappadocia looks like a fairy tale world. In order to better embrace this fairy-tale-like scenery, I chose to stay in the natural cave room of the Sacred Mansion Hotel in Goremekaya to experience the romantic atmosphere up close! - 【Location】 📍The central location of Goreme, 🧭Uzundere Cad. No 43, only 1500 feet from the center of Goreme, with many attractions around. - 🏨【Style】 We drove to Türkiye and parked directly in the hotel parking lot. The retro door lock opened, as if we were walking into a huge castle and starting a treasure hunt game here. The ubiquitous art paintings decorate every corner; a variety of everlasting flowers create a romantic atmosphere; the unique furniture and supplies demonstrate taste and aesthetics. - 🛏️【Check-in】 From check-in to check-out, the staff provided service with a smile, and the service experience was like home. The hotel has only 37 rooms, including natural cave rooms, stone rooms, vaulted rooms and suites. I chose to stay in a suite, which has a large space and basically restores the cave itself. The retro European style design is full of mystery. You can also enjoy the unique landforms around it by opening the window. - 🥘【Food】 1️⃣Lilith restaurant: Serves Turkish and world cuisine. Located on the hotel's rooftop terrace, you can enjoy both indoor and outdoor dining. The outdoor terrace offers a view of the beautiful scenery of Goreme. 2️⃣Virtus restaurant: A Michelin-listed restaurant with exquisite plating and retro decoration, fresh and carefully prepared international cuisine, and affordable prices, which successfully awakened my taste buds. - 📷【Surrounding attractions】 📌Goreme Open Air Museum: About 5 kilometers, it is one of the most famous attractions in Cappadocia, with numerous cave churches and murals. 📌Goreme National Park: About 2 kilometers, the park has unique volcanic rock landforms and fairy chimney landscapes. 📌Uchisar Castle: About 3 kilometers, it is one of the landmark buildings in Cappadocia and overlooks the beautiful scenery of the entire Goreme area. 📌Hot air balloon: The front desk can help you book a hot air balloon. The specific price and whether it can take off normally are subject to the information on the day. 🌄【Hidden tips】 1⃣️The hotel is about 2 kilometers away from the panoramic viewing platform of Goreme. It takes about half an hour to walk to the highest point of the town. At sunset, the blues come and the lights come on, just like a fairy tale world. 2⃣️The hotel terrace has a wide view. Every time a hot air balloon takes off, it will pass by here. You don’t have to drive to chase the hot air balloons. You can feel the romance here by just looking up.

I thought that romantic Türkiye had given enough romance to Istanbul. Until I came to the "alien city" - Cappadocia, I was surprised to find that half of Turkey's romance was given to it. 🎈Cappadocia, recognized as the best place in the world for hot air balloon flying, is romantic at sunrise when hundreds of hot air balloons take off and occupy the sky. At this moment, "romance" is also embodied. 🚗Chasing hot air balloons Riding a hot air balloon is romantic, and chasing hot air balloons is also a part of romance. You can ride in a vintage car, or go to a terrace cafe, or of course drive yourself to chase it, this is her unique romance. ➡️Recommended place to chase hot air balloons for free, map 🔍 Love Garden, there are not many tourists here, and the shooting position is also quite good! 🐫Camel Peak 🌋Cappadocia is also known as the "Alien City" because it has a unique lunar-like landform on Earth. Millions of years ago, volcanoes spewed thousands of tons of volcanic material, which, through rain, wind and sand erosion, gradually formed the huge plateaus, valleys, canyons and miles of fairy chimney-shaped rock formations that we see. ➡️Recommended free check-in spot "Camel Peak", navigate to 🔍 The Devrent Valley, where the lunar-like landforms are "concrete" 🏨Cave Hotel 🛏️The cave hotel is a must-try.
